Well hello from 7,281 miles away (according to Google Earth)! What a new experience for me, to be spending the next 9 months in the Horn of Africa. It took roughly 24 hours to get from Norfolk, Virginia to Djibouti, Djibouti. Although I have been traveling and flying since I was an infant, this was my first trip across the pond. I spent about 6 hours in the Dubai airport, which was pretty uneventful, but I made the best of it, luckily they had WiFi so I shot out a few emails letting people know that I had successfully landed in the desert. From Dubai it was only about a 3 hour flight down to Djibouti...
Do not fly on Daallo! I was scared to get on that plane, I just waiting for people to jump start the propellers...not really, but you get the idea. The best part about this trip is that I caught a cold, so on top of jet lag it wasn't the best feeling.
Finally arriving in Djibouti I was greeted by...mosquitoes, goats, cats, and stray dogs. I knew I was in heaven.
